Breakfast casserole

Who doesn't love breakfast food??  There are so many different ways you can make eggs and then there is pancakes, waffles, sausage, bacon, toast, french toast, fruit, biscuits and gravy....and so many more!  We love to have breakfast for dinner probably every other week.  I think that is mostly because AJ and I usually have our shake for breakfast, which I love but that means I don't get all of that other yummy breakfast food.

At church we rotate who brings in breakfast for our small group.  I always try to make something healthy and then a little something sweet.  A couple of weeks ago I brought in an egg casserole and breakfast cookies that went over well and disappeared except for these 2 pieces that I got a picture of (after I took a bite!)

These egg casseroles are super easy to make and you can make it ahead of time if you need to.  You can easily reheat it or its even good cold :)


This one was thrown together pretty quickly and I used what I had on hand.  You can add any kind of protein or veggies you wanted and it would be delicious, but this simple combination was easy and delicious.

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees
Brown your breakfast sausage (I use Jennie-O turkey)
Place it in the bottom of a 9x13 dish
Dice up tomatoes into bite size pieces and layer over the top of the sausage
Shred Colby Jack cheese and sprinkle generously over the top of the sausage and tomatoes
Beat 11 eggs and season with salt and pepper (that is all I had, I'm sure 12 would be good too!)
Pour eggs over the top and season with Italian Seasoning and Parsley
Bake for 40 minutes
Let cool for a couple minutes to set and then serve warm.  Enjoy!

Happy Holidays!

It has been a glorious 5 days off work and time spent with the family!  We normally travel for the holidays, but we had been traveling so much we decided to stay home and have Thanksgiving.  Our neighbor invited us over to join their family so I didn't have to make a big meal for the 4 of us - plus AJ said he would rather go out to eat than make a big meal that may get wasted.  So I accepted the invitation 😊 I did make some pies, chocolate chip cookies and a green bean casserole to bring over 😱 I did quite well with my eating and only had a little piece of cherry pie and pumpkin pie!  I told myself I wasn't going to have any, but I only eat pumpkin pie once a year so I couldn't resist myself! No skipping on the workout though and I tried to make the green bean casserole a little healthier - this (http://smilesandwich.com/2015/10/26/clean-eating-green-bean-casserole/) isn't the exact recipe I used, but similar.  I tried to follow the one on Beachbody on Dem...

Happy 2017

Hey!  Happy New Year!!  I hope you had a fantastic Christmas and a safe and enjoyable time ringing in 2017! Our time was spent away from home but with family for Christmas.  We had a busy but wonderful time during the holidays!  The kids seemed to really enjoy time with their cousins they hadn't seen in a while and we got to enjoy time with each other. As a family we all must have decided that we would wear some shard of blue or green on Christmas Day! My family all seem to know me well and I got a lot of new workout tanks, pants and shirts for Christmas!!  I love them all!!  This one that my husband found fits me perfectly!   What were some of your favorite Christmas presents this year?  I love giving the gift of health - and my momma decided to pass that along to my sisters as well!  I'm so excited for all of them to be joining me this month in our health bet!  As fun as it is to receive and give gifts during the holida...

Some is better than none

So sometimes life happens and we get busy and things fall to the backburner. I haven't written in 11 days!! Yikes - we have a lot to catch up on! Since last time we have been out of town and played at a really cool playground that was developed for all kids - so kids with disabilities could have the same fun as a child without a disability. It was amazing and really struck my heart since I occasionally work with kids with disabilities. I only took one real picture unfortunately, the rest were on snap chat (terra227). It also gave me the thought that they need an adult sized playground. My SIL and I had fun playing but were too big for a lot of it!  Have you ever seen an adult playground, like with old school playground equipment meant for adults?? Someone should make one! I have also started a new program!! I am so excited and am loving this program. I have done it for 5 days so far and am already seeing amazing results!! It is an MMA style workout but they throw in strength...
